Process
I met Facebook engineers who referred me to a recruiter. The recruiter contacted me three weeks after I met the engineers.
We set up Round 1, a phone screen, within two weeks of our first email exchange. Facebook does move pretty fast with the recruiting process.
The recruiter contacted me again about two days after Round 1 to set up Round 2. Round 2 was about three weeks after Round 1.
